Is this more stable and better than v4.5.0.55?

Yes, I no longer can see HTML mail. I have the option to get Text Mail, then back to Get Html, but it all shows as code, no images. I no longer have the option "Get Images." Bummer.

Yes. If you have anything older than 4.5.0.69 I would definitely upgrade.

Installed this on my girlfriends 8100 from T-Mo...no problems as of yet...fixed the LED problem by removing color pearl and adding blingball - great app by the way - and it took a while to burn the new data into the memory since upgrading from 4.2 to 4.5, other than that it works...and works pretty well...

will it ever be release in spanish?

newbie question...
What is the lates multilanguage version for the 8100??
i got 4.5.0.92 (Multilanguage) from the T-Mobile Europe site.
is this release .92 a beta version??

That version is 4.5.0.69 (rel 92)

It's older than the OS referenced in this thread.

This version does have Spanish.

thanks john

I have an issue every so often that if I call out or someone calls in, I can't hear anything and they can't hear me. It doesn't happen every time though.

works perfect for me!!!! no problems at all!!! thanks guys

Is the 4.5 upgrade still working ok for you? I see you have a Tmobile 8100, as I do, and I would like to upgrade as well if yours is still working fine.

i Just did mine and it works really great.....better then the 4.2.....it will run slow at first but give it about 5-10 minutes then its works sweet......

thanks again guys...

Well I have to say now that mines is constantly locking up on me. Just today, I had the alarm set to get me up at 2am and I woke up on my own at 2:55am and I looked at my phone and it had the hour glass with the phone stuck at 11:59pm. It's been doing this for about a week, so I'm looking at doing an upgrade to see if the newer OS will fix the problem.

This OS have spanish language?

if you search in this thread, Camaro322hp does say that it supports spanish.

will upgrading will lock my bb 8100? (i'm in israel and got it in the us and i can use any carrier here)

do i have to remove my applications before installing this?
also i have os 4.5.0.55 and am very much happy with it.
should i upgrade?

AFter downloading this new OS when I try to run it on my PC I get this message "error reading setup initialization file"

any help??

After reading this Thread over and over. Trying to decide weather or not to risk future issues with my BB, I went ahead and upgraded my BB Pearl 8100 os from 4.2 to 4.5.0.81 and despite having to wait 20or so minutes for reboot everything went well. nO PROBLEMS YET (FINGERS CROSSED) . THANKS EVERY ONE FOR ALL THE GREAT RESOURCES. This is a great site.
PEACE FROM THE M/P/L/S....

I just upgraded to .102 and it's a lot better than .81. I just hope that it doesn't freak out like .81 did.

I'm getting a 507 error and I don't know what to do!! How do I fix this? It did it during the install! I deleted the vendor file and followed directions completely...please help!

Under 'device connected' PIN: none

does this mean it's not recognizing my phone? I've tried a search but can't fix this. somebody help..I live by my phone as a PDA...

I look at these steps below, but when I go to update apps, a window pops up that says "Device Connection" and asks me for my PIN password...how can I get that? my os is gone...what do I do?

Install OS and Restore

1. Open Desktop Manager and select Application Loader

2. Install the OS by following the prompts and selections

3. The device will reboot. It can take up to 15 minutes for the 1st boot.

4. Restore the previously made backup or re-sync

5. Install the battery back into the device and unplug from the PC

Now I've really searched around...I think I could just reinstall it all if only I could get the Desktop manager to recognize my phone...is this the PIN issue? I can't find anyway around this....please help me out..

did you delete the vendor.xml file. if not , Locate the vendor.xml file and delete it. It's located in c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader..

Do you think it's YOUR PHONES PIN? GO TO TOOLS IN YOUR BB AND YOUR PIN IS LOCATED UNDER STATUS OPTION..

I can't get into my blackberry as the OS is f@$%'d! 507 error...

ANYWAY..just fixed it...whew...no password needed...OS is up and running...thank GOD! And thanks to all who helped with ideas.
No idea why it didn't work the first time...could it be that I didn't format my media card first? I heard that might be a problem..always format before OS install...

Here is the latest release of the 8100 OS

I upgraded to v4.5.0.81 a few weeks ago. A lot of new features (I previously had v4.2). But I am experiencing a couple of problems. 1. It seems much slower (more so when you first turn on the device). A lot of hourglasses (sometimes I need to pull the batterry). 2. While on the web (using the standard browser) I get the follow error often ...The page you requested could not be loaded; it is too large for the device.

I recently upgraded to a Bold and gave my old wife the Pearl. Now she is complaining that it is slow. Before I gave it to her I did wipe the device and reloaded v4.5.0.81. I haven't loaded too much on it and it has more than 10mb of memory available.

Any suggestions? I'm thinking about try v4.5.0.134. I rather not downgrade back to v4.2.

10Mb of space on a Pearl is VERY low. Free up some memory. Most of the Pearls can get upwards of 30Mb free. You should never have less than 20Mb on an 8100.

To be a little bit more accurate, i have 17 mb free. The only thing i loaded after the software upgrade is epocrates (according to their website it needs about 10mb). Does it make sense that i should have about 17 mb free after v4.5.0.81 and epocrates? Thanks.

Didn't format the card prior to the install, which I know I should've done... so of course it was rebooting like crazy. Took it out, and everything is peachy. Now, will a regular format to the card on the pc clear the problem?

Is it okay to mix match different version of OS? What I meant was I already upgrade my Pearl to run v4.5.0.102 multilanguages. However I would like to add some East Asian languages too, eg. Chinese.

Is it okay to only add the Chinese.alx from this 4.5.0.81 version and add it on top of my multi-lang v4.5.0.102? I don't want to get any more "App. Error 523" Just want to see if anybody already tried it.

In the v4.2 days, I could do that for sure.

I will give it a try anyway.

Thanks!!

Tried to add the "CJK.alx" from the 4.5.0.81 OS to my BB Pearl. Desktop Manager gave me this:

"No additional applications designed for your device where found!"

Other .alx stopped working too. Don't know what's wrong with my DM. It is v4.7.0.32
